''The developers have completed the last stage of the application.” The Korean exclaimed; his English with a Korean accent as he pointed to the large screen where the projection was.
“they were designing an app that can help, communicate with humans. He explained what the app was able to done and it cons and pros. He also started how it could learn from human and fins solution to problem.”
'What does she mean by him getting jealous? Does it mean that she sees him to be more than a friend?
Those were thoughts running through Liam’s, he was not concentrating on what the Korean man was explaining.
As the Korean rapped on, his mind drifted over to the event of the previous night. He could remember that something touched him and when that thing left, he woke up. What was it?
He wondered, but he could not think of a valid answer to his question.
''…we have the software here; in case you want to try it.” The man
The next day, she got dressed by 10am and waited all the way till 1pm, because he didn't come on time.She was getting anxious but when she saw him step out of his car, her worries disappeared instantly, and a smile washed her lips.He treated her well. He made her feel wanted; he brightened up her day with his jokes and laughter. She thought he wanted her too, and clouded by her emotions, she confessed to him.That day was her worst nightmare, she wished she had not told him anything, then she could continue loving him from the shadows, but it was not possible anymore, she had confessed to him, and lost the right to even be a friend.Her heart slammed against her ribs as she waited for his reply. He didn't know how much courage she gathered to tell him how much she had loved him. Her hands clenched tight under the table as she struggled to remain calm.There was almost a minute silence between them before Lucas spoke up;“Evie…
Kate creased her lips at his question. He was watching her as though he really wanted to know, but after remembering what he did to her, she didn't feel like talking about her dreams at all.''I don't have any dreams.” her dream was to be an interior designer but at that moment, her biggest dream was to get as far as she could from such a complicated person.''No-one can say that; everyone has a dream gorgeous.” Liam smirked, his gaze on her not blinking.''Hmm, if that's so, what's your dream?” She asked, raising her eyelid, and tilting her head a little.''Mmm, I have a lot of goals gorgeous. I'll tell you when the time is right, but for now; I've always wanted to be a chef.”“….”Kate’s eyes widened and in the next second, she was bursting from laughter.Pft! Hahahhahahaha!!“Pardon, what did you just say?” She asked; her face all red from laughing too much.
''Let's go home now. '' Liam said, interrupting Kate from her thoughts, as he ended the hug and held her hand lovingly. Kate sighed lightly as she forced her eyes away from him and looked towards the door.When they arrived home, Evie and Bruno were playing card game in the front porch. When they saw them, they paused to greet them.“Kate, you're back?” Bruno called, his eyes fixated on her, as though there was no-one by her side.''Yeah, we are back.I can see you guys are having fun?” Kate greeted and her face flushed red when she felt Liam arm go around her waist. She resisted the urge to peek at his face because she was sure it would be frosty. Bruno glanced briefly at his hand on her waists and looked back up to her face,“It's not a lot of fun, but I think it's better than nothing.” Bruno said with a smile, and she laughed.''Alright, we'll be going in now, it's been a stressful day, continue having fun.&rdq
She bit on her lower lip involuntarily; as her eyes stared intently at his lips, resisting the urge to reach out and feel them. ''Don't do that, gorgeous…” Liam said weakly. Kate watched his hand reach to her lips and take her lower lip from her lips; her heart instantly skipped a beat. ''You are already tempting enough; I don't know if I'll be able to control myself if you do that. '' Liam’s voice was hoarse and with a deep hint of breathiness. Kate’s face was so red like a ripe tomato and not able to take it anymore, she leaned backwards, away from his body. ''Ehem, I… I think my feet are okay now. Thank you dear.” She stood up quickly from the couch and looked towards the door, ''I'll be stepping downstairs for a moment, grandpa asked me to spend quality time with him today, after I return from work.'' She explained and quickly walked towards the door. Although chatting with grandpa wasn't something very fun, at that moment, she would gladl
“Don't you think we should just do what they said?” Kate suggested politely.Liam’s gaze turned to her, his eyes fiery, and she instantly shook her head.''Nooo, I didn't mean we should continue with the pairing, I just feel we shouldn't do nothing, since we came for the birthday; we should help out in any way we can.” She said raising her hand to his chest and rubbed him lightly; as soon as her hand touched his chest, his glare disappeared instantly, and he blinked, a warm gaze replacing the icy expression. He raised his hand and covered her hand on his chest, squeezing it lightly;''You'll never leave my side okay?” He spoke softly and Kate’s eyes flicked, she felt a choking tug on her throat and she couldn't find the words to reply.''Okay?” Liam said again, lifting her hand to his lips, he kissed it lightly, his eyes still fixed on hers, Kate gulped.''Okay beb.” She forced a smile to her lips as
''So you're no longer angry? '' she asked, wanting to be sure he wasn't just averting the topic.“Yes.”''We'll do the tasked assigned to us?” Kate asked again.''Yeah, we'll do it.”Kate smiled and relaxed on his chest, her eyes gazing at his features. Even though she was just pretending, she could not deny the fact that she liked the warmth of his arms. In fact, if not that she had some dignity; she wouldn't even want to leave his arms. He smelt so nice, and he was very handsome, definitely, his hug would be nothing less than alluring.Kate’s eyes blinked as she admired him;How could a man's lashes be so long?She wondered as she studied his features. A pout formed on her cheeks as she realized that he was really too handsome. Too bad he had a sad personality, he would have been a perfect match for any woman.''I've hugged no one like this before.” Liam said suddenly, pulling Kate out of h
''yeah, Grandpa, I hope it will be a great success.'' Liam said.''Hmm, that's good. It's good to see you go out of your way and do something huge for the company, I never doubted your competence, but now, I'm very proud of you. '' Albert said with a satisfied smile on his face.He was really old now. These days, he couldn't talk loudly anymore and he could not walk long distance too.After dinner, everyone rested in the living room and Albert had asked Liam about the new project. He was very proud of Liam after hearing what he was doing, although he wasn't surprised that he would take such a huge risk, he was very pleased.Liam was very much like his father, determined, ambitious and focused. He had never regretted handing the company over to him… never.As they sat in the living room, a certain man's face was absolute but his mind was filled with different thoughts.He had really underestimated Liam.He had died down the rumo
What if she had killed herself? He had hurt her so much, yet she had forgiven him without thinking twice. He was really a bad person.Liam’s smile dropped instantly as he thought of all the wrongs he had caused her.“Wifey, I'm very sorry. I'm very, very sorry, for everything I've done to you, for the pain I've caused you. I wasn't in my right mind then, I'm really sorry, I can't even imagine that I did those things to you. Christ, what have I done?” Liam said with a trembling voice, he really regrets all he did to her. he felt ashamed of himself and hated himself for what he had done to her.Liam raised his hand to his eyes as he tried to hold in the tears forcing its way to his eyes. His legs became weak and he slumped on the bed, covering his face with both hands.Kate’s head was in a mess, she felt all the anger, pain and hatred she had for him crush into tiny pieces. She was trying to find a reason to hate him but she co
Jayden smiled as he walked to his room and looked at his reflection in the mirror. His fingers ruffled his hair, and he wondered if he should get a new hairstyle. Striding sluggishly to his bed, he fell on it. Madison… He thought, a smirk on his lips. He could not get her out of his head after that heated night of passion. He had not done something so wild before; sleeping with someone he didn't know for the first time. It was crazy. After that day, he had intended to forget about her, but after seeing her application letter to work in his company, he couldn't get her off his mind. He wanted to have a taste of it again, but this time, with her name on his lips, that was if she was up for it. But judging from how she had acted, he wasn't sure she wanted to do it again. He was brought back from his thoughts when his phone rang. He swiped when he saw the caller; Ivy… '' ''hey, babe, you up for some party tonight?'' she asked. He could hear her tossing things about in the background
''Pft, what a very sad life you live. '' Elle said, giggling lightly. Jayden ruffled her hair;''It's not, it's even more peaceful than most. ''''Nah, I highly doubt. But I still wish you'll fall in love someday, even if not with Ivy, with someone who would love you just the same.''Jayden laughed; ''Don't tell me you're already in another relationship, Elle. You just broke up two weeks ago! '' Jayden just guessed, but when he saw the smile on her chin, he knew he had suspected right;''You don't say!'' He laughed;''This one likes me a lot, Jayden, '' Jayden nodded; ''And so did the last one, ''Elle rolled her eyes. ''Well, that one was a cheat. ''Jayden was quiet for a moment, then he patted her hair; ''Just be careful, okay, you can take your time before getting into another relationship, you're still very young.''Elle stood up; ''it's getting late, are you going home or you're sleeping over?''Jayden smiled, seeing that she had smartly changed the topic. He just wanted her to
Jayden smiled when he saw the faint blush appear on her chin. It was hard to resist him; he had not met a woman who did.''So what do you say? Dinner by 6 on Saturday?'' He asked, shifting the strands of her hair to the back of her ear. She couldn’t breathe. The only thing she wanted at that moment was to escape from there, so she quickly nodded.Jayden smiled and stood upright; ''Okay, I'll pick you at your house.'' he said, walked to his car, and drove off, leaving her standing and looking incredibly shocked by what just happened.It took Mady a few minutes to realize that she had just agreed to a date with him. She grabbed her hair with one hand as she frowned intensely. What did she just do?***Jayden stared at her through his rearview mirror, a grin on his chin. He mentally thanked his car for getting hit that morning. After that day at his office, he had thought of a thousand ways to start a conversation with her without it being weird or out-of-place giving their encounter in
The rest of the week ran smoothly. Madison was surprised that Jayden did not speak or asked to see her after that first encounter. She was surprised, but at the same time, happy. Happy that it was as Zoey had said, there was nothing to it, it was just a one-night stand.She had bumped into ivy a few times, but she felt so guilty that she couldn't even look her in the eye. ivy was pretty with a hot body. She wondered what could make Jayden cheat on someone so perfect.But you can never understand people who think with their d*cks can you? I mean, she was perfect for her Ex, but he cheated more times than all the sex she had ever had in her entire life.Work was great. She changed her alarm wake-up time to 5:30, so she could be at the company very early. She did not want to get on the bad side of her seniors. But then, just when everything was going smoothly, something happened.Mady greeted her colleagues as she left the office. Walking to the parking lot, she beeped her car and walked
The two other employees glanced at Madison in shock. Did she just curse in front of the CEO? Was she asking to be sacked? Madison’s hands flew to her lips when she realized what she just did.''I'm sorry, sir. It was a slip of the tongue.'' She apologized, trying her best to avoid eye contact. Just what the hell did she get herself involved in?Jayden sat up in his chair; ignoring what just happened, he asked; ''Have you all been briefed?''"Yes, we have,'' they replied. ''Alright, you're welcome to Lincoln Corporation. I hope you enjoy working with us.'' He said and stood up, extending his hand for a handshake;The two employees shook him, and Madison stretched her shaky hands. Jayden smiled as he shook her. Nothing extra, but she felt shivers travel up her spine, and she quickly withdrew her hand.Jayden smiled and dismissed them. Ari was the first to turn around in a bid to escape quickly, but he was not done with her yet.“Madison Grey.'' He called and her legs came to a halt as
Madison slumped on her bed when she came back from the interview. She had taken a day's leave from work to go for the interview, and this was the last chance she had, else she would be stuck working for Clinics for a few more years. She didn't want that.Taking off her clothes, she cleaned up her house. She didn't have the time to clean up in the morning since she was in a hurry.As she cleaned her room, her thoughts drifted to the man from the previous night.Was she rude for sending him away like that? She thought.Then she shook her head. She would have made breakfast before he left, but she had an interview she couldn't miss. Besides, it was a one-night stand, they didn't know each other and Australia was too big of a place to meet a stranger twice.Changing her bedsheets. She put it into the washing machine and lay down for a movie.***Madison woke up the next morning and prepared for work, she quickly had breakfast and hurried out of the house, on the way, her phone buzzed and
Madison lost count of how many times they did it that night. Wild, passionate sex with no strings attached. It was nothing like she had ever felt. Morning came too quickly, as she was woken by her alarm. She had set an alarm for 6 because she had a job interview at Lincoln Corporation.She was an accountant. She had worked for a clinic for three years, but she wanted to move to a new environment and get better opportunities, plus she was having issues with her manager, and he was making work difficult for her.She had gone for a few interviews, but the companies were yet to call her back. Lincoln was her last straw. She jumped up from the bed naked and she hurried to the bathroom, but she stopped halfway when she noticed someone lying on the bed.Remembering her escapade, the previous night, she ran back to the bed and shook him roughly."Wake up! It's time to leave."Seeing him this morning, she noticed how great his body was. He looked like he worked out. He was sleeping with messy
21 years laterMadison touched up her already red lips as she smacked them."How do I look?" She asked, her best friend. Zoey was her childhood friend and they had been through all life's shit together."Hot, baby girl." She said, packing her hair up in a ponytail,"I'm going to get laid tonight." Madison said, and Zoey chuckled,"You get laid almost every night, not like this would be any different.""Well, it would cause I’ll be fucking a total stranger."Zoey’s eyes widened as she turned to her friend but before she could say a word, Madison walked out the restroom. Her friend had taken some alcohol earlier so she was a little high, so she wasn't sure if she was saying with her right senses."You are kidding right?" Zoey perverse as she followed Madison immediately,Madison smirked; "watch me." She said as her eyes scanned the crowd of screaming people in the club and her eyes stopped at a guy who was drinking alone at the bar.She smiled and walked to him before Zoey could stop he
Four years later."Jayden Smith, come back here!" Kate called as she watched her son leave his food and run to hug his father as he walked down the stairs, laughing mischievously.The little boy looked exactly like Liam, except he had his mother's eyes. Liam lifted his son up and kissed his fat cheeks as he carried him back to where his mom was sitting.Kissing her on the lips, he placed Jayden back in his chair. Kate glared at her son, and he laughed, showing off his developed milk teeth. She couldn't even get angry at him."How was your night, baby?" He asked as he tilted Kate’s head to look at him."Fine!" Jayden answered, before his mom could form words in her mouth. Kate and Liam burst out laughing."Jay, I was asking your mother." Liam said, patting his hair.Kate smiled. ''He likes you too much. '' she said;''It's obvious. '' Liam chuckled, patting Jayden hair again. Liam dotted on their son a little too much. It was as though he wanted to give him all the love he couldn't get
